Dear Ron & Betty, I'm incredibly grateful for being selected as a recipient of the Ronald and Betty Thomas Educational Scholarship. Knowing that you believe in my potential to make a difference means so much to me. With this generous support, I can focus more on my classes and involvement in student government and the Optimist Club, instead of worrying about the cost of my education. As a junior in high school planning to major in education, I’m passionate about helping others grow and discover their strengths. Your commitment to inspiring educational growth and compassion in students motivates me to strive even harder and to encourage the same spirit in those around me. Your dedication to uplifting students in Florida and building a better world truly inspires me. I hope to honor your mission by making a positive impact in my community and beyond. I can’t thank you enough for your kindness and encouragement. Thank you, Jada Cruz

Dear Ron & Betty and the Thomas Family, I'm sincerely grateful for being selected as a recipient of the Ronald and Betty Thomas Educational Scholarship. It truly means a lot to me to receive this recognition as I work toward my dream of becoming an educator. This award will help me continue my studies with greater confidence, as your support eases the financial challenges of pursuing a college education. Knowing that I have your encouragement allows me to focus even more on my academics and leadership opportunities during my senior year at Hernando High School. Your family’s commitment to inspiring others, showing compassion, and building a better world resonates deeply with me. I hope to carry your mission forward by guiding my own students to reach beyond what they imagine is possible. Thank you so much for your generosity and support.

Your belief in me truly means a lot, and this generous support is making a real difference as I begin my journey toward becoming an educator here in Florida. With this scholarship, the financial pressures of pursuing my degree are eased, allowing me to devote even more energy and passion to my studies and field experiences. Your kindness ensures I can focus on learning how to best encourage and guide my future students, just as I have always dreamed. Teaching has always been more than just a career goal for me — it’s my calling. I want to create the kind of classroom environment I wish I’d experienced as a child, where every student feels seen and inspired to reach their fullest potential. Your mission to inspire growth, encourage compassion, and make the world better truly resonates with my own hopes as a future teacher. Thank you for your generosity and for the lasting impact you have on students like me. I look forward to carrying forward your commitment to education with every young mind I teach.
